Hopefully it's March.... the wheels of bureaucracy turn slowly I guess. I had my hopes up last weekend when the FCC licencing site went down for maintenance, but no dice.

10 watts in a handheld......

I would be interested in making an offer on an oxy-acetylene torch of you come across one.

Looks like the new FCC radio licence fee schedule was approved.

I managed to replace all of my control arm bushings. I think Trent was the one who warned me about the ones on the front axle. Those were a bear. I had to cut the front lowers off with a...

Very slick.

Your first post talks about rooftop cargo. How much weight is that top designed to support, and how much to you think you'll put up there?

One of the nice things about your rear...

You're right. Their regular prices are not that great. Amazon has a better price on that Milwaukee impact right now.

I haven't found another site that seems to sell the factory refurbished...

You're probably right about the grease, but I was kinda hoping it was just defying the laws of physics... or someone has been playing an elaborate joke on me and sneaks into my garage every few...

I have a dewalt corded impact like that harbor freight one. It's been slowly leaking some kind of oil for something like 12 years. At this point it seems like it's leaked more than it could...

I think the chevy express AWD vans are mostly V8 1500's. There may have been a handful of years where they put that system in a 2500 but they are rare. I'm not sure if the 4.3 was offered with...

I was able to wrap up the RMS before christmas. So far I have not had any drips, but its probably only safe to say that I have slowed it down at this point. I'm guessing it may take a little time for...

Forgive me if this is obvious, but you might want to consider putting some thick grease on the threads of that press tool. Almost every time I rent any threaded tool like that from the parts store...

I was able to put in about 2.5 hours today and I'm probably halfway into it.

My exhaust is all one piece from the manifold back. I figured I could swing it out of the way while I dropped the...

I'm going to see if a new rear main seal will cut down on the drip coming out of the back of my engine. I'll also be replacing my damaged oil pan.

Question: It's recommended to add a dab of RTV...

I misunderstood. Sorry about that. I suppose my last comment may still be useful, unless you think you'll be stressing them more now than in the past or doing more water crossings more often...In...

It may depend on the new unit. How reliable or readily serviceable is it? We use a large Sulair compressor at work that's getting pretty old, but I can get a service tech on site same-day if I need...

Isn't the transfer case side of the front driveshaft a double cardan on a TJ or LJ? I've never had good luck getting access to the zerks on my greasable double cardan CVs / ujoints without unbolting...

Jim,

It's funny that you cite www.buytwowayradios.com as I was going to suggest that as a resource. All of the rules around FRS and GMRS seem to be way more confusing than they should be, but...

We're scrapping some old machinery at work. I saw these vents and figured they could make some decent hood louvers. There's two pieces, roughly 15" x 19". Steel. Each vent is about 6" long. If...

GMRS would be cool as a trail radio if you could get most of the people you ride with to adopt it. There are the handhealds you are thinking of, but there are also mobile radios with more power......

The organization that Derf alluded to that monitors the Colorado Connection for emergencies: https://co-cern.org/... in case anyone unfamiliar was curious.

Per the colcon website, you can see...

A very good point. It wasn't my intent to try and say what's right or wrong, more to just blurt out all of the things I have been looking into for setting up this kind of thing for myself. I...

I think the threshold in CO for trailers needing brakes is 3000lbs.... not sure if curb weight or GVWR would apply. In Utah I think they have a requirement about being able to stop in a certain...

I'm pretty sure I had that issue with my old '06. Somewhere around here I have the little helical drive gear. Luckily it made quite a racket before it chewed up the gear teeth on the cam too bad. ...

Good run. Lots of casings and clays on Barbour Fork. Thanks, everyone.
